Baptist Colleges and Universities

The Baptist Church can trace its origins back to 1609. It was founded in Amsterdam, Holland, but quickly spread to the New World, and today the Baptist Church thrives in the United States.

Baptist Colleges & Universities

Evidence of the church's strength is the number of Baptist colleges and universities available. Located in a variety of areas, over 100 Baptist universities and colleges offer a range of different higher education choices.

The Baptist Church believes in the fundamentals of the Christian faith. These fundamentals derive directly from the Bible, and each individual member of the Baptist Church has both the choice and the responsibility to live a life guided by these fundamentals.

This could make attending a Baptist institution an especially appealing choice. First of all, it is an opportunity for you to advance your knowledge and understanding of the Bible. Second, it allows you to learn and to mature in an environment in which fundamental Christian values are reflected in the lifestyle choices of the campus.
